Chapter 40: The Legend of the Female General (2)

"What are you doing here?"

Jiang Ning's back straightened, and his whole body stiffened at a loss.

Mu Jingzhao's patience gradually faded, he reached out and snatched the book from Jiang Ning's hand, casually glancing at the pages she had just turned over.

"Female general?" Mu Jingzhao looked at her suspiciously, his expression was indescribably subtle, "What are you looking at this for?" ”

Jiang Ningpi didn't smile, and she was only secretly glad in her heart, but fortunately she didn't find anything else.

"Not you yet." Jiang Ning's eyes were blank, and he felt in his heart that he should still strike first, "You only told me to assassinate, and didn't tell me anything about the things next to me, I almost lost my life by assassinating and assassinating, can you afford to be responsible if I die?" ”

Mu Jingzhao was stunned, he really didn't expect that as an emperor above 10,000 people under one person, he would be forced to ask by a storyteller on the street one day.

"How do I..."

"How are you? Are you too embarrassed to ask you how? Jiang Ning viciously pulled the book from Mu Jingzhao's hand and inserted it into the gap in the bookshelf.

"If you think about it with a little brain, you can also think that the mastermind behind the scenes is just trying to replace you." Jiang Ning moved forward step by step, forcing Mu Jingzhao to retreat again and again, "If I don't even know who is in the court, then how can I find out the truth?" ”

"Are you like making me wait to die like you?"

Mu Jingzhao retreated step by step to the bookshelf, he accidentally stepped on the broken tiles scattered all over the ground, his feet slipped, and the dazzling sunlight from the roof fell on his face unscrupulously.

After a period of dizziness, Mu Jingzhao regained his former indifference and depth, "So, this is the reason why you used drugs to stun me and lifted my roof?" ”

Jiang Ning saw that Mu Jingzhao was going to collect debts like himself again, and thought to himself, anyway, he couldn't remember the things in the book, so she tilted her body and hurriedly held her waist and exclaimed.

"Ouch, it hurts-"

Her voice was sad, but Mu Jingzhao was indifferent, just looking at her indifferently.

Seeing that Mu Jingzhao didn't eat this, she hurriedly gathered her strength, and her body tilted down for half a point, "Woo woo, your majesty, the concubine's waist is about to be broken." ”

Mu Jingzhao was about to make a mockery at her, but when he turned his head, he saw that Jiang Ning's very fleshy little face was pitifully wrinkled, and her big black grape-like eyes were full of tears at this time.

He looked a little helpless, but finally bent down and helped Jiang Ning to a bench that had never been affected by the broken tiles, and the two were relatively speechless.

Jiang Ning was lying on the soft chair in a rather strange posture, she twisted her waist, hanging her ass and waist in the air as much as possible, while her arms were supporting her chin, staring at Mu Jingzhao pitifully.

"How do you..."

"Woooooo

"You're..."

"It hurts me..."

Every time Mu Jingzhao opened his mouth, he was blocked back by Jiang Ning Jiang Ning's pitiful eyes full of tears.

After repeating it a few times, he quietly shut up.

Mu Jingzhao has been the only child of his parents since he was a child, he doesn't have to worry about competing for the throne, he doesn't have to face the deception in the harem, everything he wants is at his fingertips.

In the past twenty years, he has hardly suffered any frustration or setback.

Until he met Jiang Ning.

He suddenly realized that there could be so many unforeseen accidents and surprises in his life.

She's absurd, smart, unexpected and overwhelming.

Her every action and every move can give Mu Jingzhao endless and unforeseeable surprises.

At this time, Mu Jingzhao seemed to be suddenly shocked that life can have so many possibilities.

"So, you climbed up to my roof to fall from above...... Mu Jingzhao looked at the dilapidated roof of the imperial study, and spat out the guess that was really a little difficult to speak, "Stoned me to death?" ”

Jiang Ning was stunned, she really didn't expect that Mu Jingzhao would actually say such a nonsensical reason to excuse herself.

"yes." She laughed so much that it could almost be described as innocent, "And the concubine told the people in advance that the concubine came here to repair the roof for the emperor, and it was not the concubine's fault that she accidentally fell and hit the emperor." ”

Mu Jingzhao looked at her, and his smile gradually solidified on his face.

Such an absurd and illogical reason, if anyone said it, he would not believe it.

But it came out of Jiang Ning's mouth, so he believed it.

He secretly scolded himself that he would really be deceived by that woman's harmless appearance, such illogical nonsense, he actually didn't have the slightest doubt.

However, he was deceived willingly.

He struggled with his heart for a long time, and finally spit out a few words from his mouth with some difficulty, "I should thank you for taking my life so seriously." ”

is so heavy that he is even willing to exchange his life for a life.

"You're welcome, as it should be." Jiang Ning's smile was still innocent.

Mu Jingzhao had another heart attack, and he resisted the urge to throw Jiang Ning out of the house without looking into her eyes.

But he continued to speak, "How incomprehensible is that person to send someone like you to assassinate me." ”

"To be honest, the concubine didn't figure it out."

Mu Jingzhao was stalked again, and the room fell silent again.

Jiang Ning's thoughts were chaotic, and his mind suddenly recalled the text he had seen not long ago.

The legendary female general.

A woman from a family of generals, because she had great ambitions, hid her female identity and participated in the conscription. During his enlistment, he made great achievements and rose through the ranks, becoming the youngest general since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and was deeply appreciated for his outstanding performance, but finally lost everything and disappeared because his identity was revealed when he met his father.

Jiang Ning couldn't help but sigh.

I don't know if I'm sorry for the female general, or if I'm sorry for the country.

"Sigh what?"

"Your Majesty." Jiang Ning frowned, and said with some hesitation, "The record about the female general just now, but is it true?" ”

Mu Jingzhao's eyes seemed to be dodging, but in the end, he still didn't answer Jiang Ning's question directly, "Why are you so concerned about this matter?" ”

Jiang Ning held his chin and looked at the missing piece of the roof with a leisurely gaze, at this time, two drops of undried rain and broken rubble were dripping from time to time on the uneven edge of the big hole.

"When the concubine was telling stories on North Street before, the most common thing she said was the legend of this female general. The citizens love to listen to the legend of the female general, but they have never taken it seriously, and neither do the concubines. ”

"Why?"

"Because." Jiang Ning instantly felt that her throat was a little dry, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the dryness did not decrease but increased.

Another drop of water dripped from the edge of the rubble and landed on the ground, splashing a little bit of water.

Jiang Ning felt his heart tremble.

"Because, it's hard for the concubine to think about how tragic her fate would be if something like this happened in this country."
